Bought
The DUFF - This is my favourite buy of the week. Not only because of it's gorgeous cover but I have heard it is honest, compelling and edgy. Keplinger is a debut author and is only 18. Pretty amazing.
Stolen - I finally picked up a copy of this. It has been on my wishlist for a while. Apparently a thought provoking novel. Lucy Christopher is an Aussie author.
Once a Witch - This book has been around for a while now (since 2009). All I have heard is good things about this. I am hoping though it doesn't end of a cliffhanger because the sequel isn't until August 2011.
Trade (Thanks Holly, you are awesome)
How Not To Be Popular - A 2008 release. I think this books is going to be loads of fun!
Take Me There - My first signed copy of a book! Another book that I am crazy about the cover.
Genesis (The Rosie Black Chronicles) - A dystopian novel by an Australian author.
The Legacy -Another dystopian book. This is the final instalment in the triology. Might you add I still have to read the first two yet!
I also got this week a short story (ebook format) by Amber Vilate for review called The Undead Crimefighting League: Sophie and the Wolf. Thank you Amber.

i loved stolen. i'm thinking of buying my own copy...
ReplyDeletealso, how not to be popular was a pretty fun read :)
funny - but holly traded me - and sent me a signed copy of Take me there :) she must have had a few lying around. i read 50 pages and that was enough for me ;) i'm sending my copy to jess. you might like it more than me though - i can't really say much as i didn't finish it anyways :)
looking forward to see what you think of The DUFF (even if you dont review it - just seeing your casual opinion). i'm thinking it's probably not the book for me...

Been wondering about Duff. Interesting premise. I read one review that was mediocre. I'll be anxious to hear what you think.

ReplyDeleteAnd yay Stolen! I've heard so many good things about it. Picked up a copy for a contest winner today, but I'm thinking of getting my own copy as well.
Yes! I'm so excited you got The DUFF, Nic! I loved that book and I hope you do, too!
ReplyDeleteThe DUFF & Genesis are definitely on my wishlist. :D (I need to finish Stolen!) Great books this week & hope you enjoy them all. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a little late in making my IMM rounds. Great books! I saw someone else had The Rose Black Chronicles book in their stash too. I love the cover. I'm going to check that one out! Happy reading :)
